Actually it's not really boy trouble, more like "i really want this boy to like me but i'm too shy to even talk to him and i don't know what to do" sort of thing.
Well, that's my whole problem. I'm shy, quiet, and totally loving this adorable kid in my grade. The problem is, he doesn't really notice me.
What should I do? I mean, it would be literally impossible for me to just go up and talk to him. Not only would my face be completely red, but my words would come out as "heymynameissoandsoandireallylikeyou" Not only would it sound like a bunch of gibberish, i'd probably say something extremely embarassing.
Other than makeing a fool of myself by talking to him, is there any other way I could make him notice me a bit more? I just really like him, and I don't want to end up watching from the shadows as he meets the girl of his dreams, wishing that it could be me standing with him. Please HELP!

A couple of things ... 1) "Accidentally" bump into him as you're walking down the hall. 2) When you "accidentally" bump into him, apologize. 3) The next time you see him -- after "accidentally" bumping into him -- give him "the nod". (Look him straight in the eyes, lift your chin once, keep going.) 4) Build on that. Yeah. It must suck being shy like that. But these are the ways to get him to notice you, quite honestly, without talking to him too much. Good luck with that.@ 4:46 PM EST on Saturday, May 3, 2008, PurpleGumDrop47 said:
I get where you are coming from with this, because I am super shy too, so hopefully this advice will be conclusive. Firstly before we even discuss said boy, I think you need to give yourself more credit. If before you even talk to him you are doubting yourself and thinking you are going to say something stupid...chances are...you probably will. However if you go into the situation with a more confident attitude things could be different. Now, you cannot just go up to someone and tell them you like them. Especially guys. It scares them off, and ultimately I think that is way more forward than even non-shy people can handle. My advice is to start slowly, and build a realtionship with him before any feelings are revealed. Firstly, say hello to him. No need to converse, just a simple hello and a smile will at least get him to look your direction. Once you feel comfortable doing this/he says hi to you in passing, and you feel more recognized, move into small talk...you can talk about anything, just remember to breath and believe! You caaaan do this! After small talk comes not so small talk...then you can venture into the lands of declaring love for one another. But you must start small. Hope this helps, message me if you want. ~PurpleGumDrop47
